“I have just started using the Rover app and I am extremely happy and grateful for finding Stephanie. She is very professional, great in communicating and very attentive. Most importantly she is very kind and very caring of my Stella. When Stephanie stops by my mind is definitely at ease knowing my Stella is in great hands. You will not be disappointed booking with Stephanie 😊”
“My cats LOVED Kim! Kim was very professional and responsive. She came for a meet and greet a few weeks in advance and then stopped by briefly to get the keys a few days before I left. My cats remembered her, and both came out on her second visit to give her love. They are not shy cats, but they warmed up to Kim super fast, I think they might’ve been disappointed when I came home. Lol I think animals have a good sense about people. It put me at ease that they were so immediately comfortable with Kim. Kim also went above and beyond, in many ways, including: being flexible by adding extra days when my flight was cancelled, bringing different toys to give them some variety, and moving a security camera at my request so I could keep an eye on the food bowls when one of them was a little finicky about eating (I think the cat just wanted more of Kim’s attention. Lol). I would not hesitate to leave my babies in Kim’s care again. She certainly helped ease my mind by not having to worry about the cats being well cared for during a very stressful holiday trip.”
“Jamie is great with our dog & cats! She is friendly, & reliable. Excellent communication - we loved receiving updates & pictures of our pets that she sent regularly while we were away.”
“Jennifer was very accommodating to Waffle's habits. It was my first time leaving Waffle overnight since I adopted him, so it was great to know someone reliable was checking in on him.”
“Jennifer was great! She was able to come spend time with our 2 cats Buddy and Howard when our other rover sitter could not come last minute. She took great care of them and her son was also great playing with them and making sure they did not get lonely while we were away. I will definitely be requesting her again as a sitter. I would recommend her !”
About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. From iguanas and hamsters to cats and dogs, I’ve cared for just about every kind of furry, scaled, and whiskered companion along the way 🐾 I’ve especially spent most of my life caring for dogs, so understanding their personalities, routines, and needs comes naturally to me. I currently have a 14 year old dog who is truly my pride and joy, and caring for her has only deepened my love and patience for animals. You can trust that I’ll treat your pets with the same attention, affection, and care I give my own. Your pets won’t just be looked after, they’ll be genuinely loved 🤍 I work full time (9-5) but in the evenings and Weekends I am free(: so any needs you may have please don’t hesitate to reach out. 😌 Well I’m sure since I can’t provide my own home, that you the owner will let me know any safety hazards or things I would need to know before anything
“First time with Stormy, and definitely not the last! She was wonderful and very patient with my cat during the 10 days. She kept me updated with feedback and pictures and was always very responsive. Thank you so much, Stormy!”
About: Ive been sitting as a pet sitter for 4 years or so. Have always had my own pets. I am very affectionate with all pets I have an open schedule. Alot of flexibility. I find the older I get the deeper my love for pets grows. Appreciate their unconditional love I have a fenced big back yard. I have a Shih Tzu/Maltese breed. Luna is around other pets of family members. We love meeting others
“Mykeirah was amazing! Prompt, caring, proactive. It was my first time using rover for a sitter and she certainly set the bar. Kept the cat areas very clean and tidy, made sure they were played with fed, and even left them a little gift. I’m so grateful for her. Thanks Mykeirah! Will hire her again”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and have spent the last few years caring for close friends’ dogs and cats. I truly love animals and enjoy giving them lots of attention, walks, and care. I’m happy to look after dogs of all breeds and sizes, making sure they’re fed, exercised, and feel safe, loved, and comfortable—just like they would at home. My special skills include professional belly rubs and treat giver. I work part-time, so I’m pretty flexible during the weekdays for walks, visits, and feedings. On weekends I work eight-hour shifts on Saturday and Sunday, so I’m available early in the morning or later at night. I’m always happy to coordinate schedules to make sure your pet is well taken care of. Whether it’s my own dog or yours, there will always be long walks, playtime, and lots of belly rubs. My dog loves chasing his tennis ball and playing tug-of-war, so I’m very used to keeping pups active and happy. Whatever your dog loves to do, I’ll make sure they get plenty of fun, care, and attention.

“This was the first time I used Sky to house and cat sit for me and I am very pleased. First of all, she came to my house to meet us and to discuss my cat's daily routine. She was very professional and attentive, and also gentle when approaching my cat. While I was away, Sky sent me a photo of my cat every day, along with a description of what they did that day, both of which I really appreciated. When I came home, I found everything very clean and in good order, including the litterbox and all of her dishes washed and ready for use. My bed was also freshly made, another very kind thing to do for me! I highly recommend using Sky as a pet sitter and a house sitter, you will be happy you did!”

I am super happy to have found her on Rover; she is communicative, responsible, and loving with my pets. She stayed in contact and answered every question I had about them. I will definitely hire her again—I hope she never leaves Rover! I recommend her 100%.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
